Glavine uses a normal-costing system. It allocates Machining Department overhead costs to jobs based on actual machine-hours using a budgeted machine-hour overhead rate It allocates Assembly Department overhead costs to jobs based on actual direct manufacturing labour-hours using a budgeted direct manufacturing labour- hour rate. The following data are for the year: Machining Assembly Department Department Budgeted overhead $5,850,000 $7,812,000 Budgeted machine-hours (MH) 90,000 O Budgeted direct manufacturing labour-hours (DMLH) 0 124,000 Actual manufacturing overhead costs $5,470,000 $8,234,000 Machine-hours and direct manufacturing labour-hours and the ending balances (before proration of underallocated overhead) are as follows: Actual Direct Balance before Actual Machine- Manufacturing Proration, Hours Labour-Hours End of Year Cost of goods sold 69,000 83,200 $21,600,000 Finished goods 6,900 12,800 2,800,000 Work-in-process 16,100 32,000 7,600,000Required 1. Compute the budgeted overhead rates for the year in the Machining and Assembly departments. 2. Compute the under- or overallocated overhead in each department for the year. Dispose of the under- or overallocated amount in each department using: a. Immediate write-off to Cost of Goods Sold. b. Proration based on ending balances (before proration) in Cost of Goods Sold, Finished Goods, and Work-in-Process. c. Proration based on the allocated overhead amount (before proration) in the ending balances of Cost of Goods Sold, Finished Goods, and Work-in-Process. 3.
